An article in a leading periodieal for April gives, a graphic account of the history ;and activities of the unit. “In the devastated region’ of France that lies southeast of Amiens, belween the famous rivers, the Somme and the Aisne, theré are 16 little villages which were occupied by the Germans for three years.

As Dear Ada Comstock said at their farewell luncheon last summer: ‘They went to make a place of homes and fruitful- ness.” To Smith belongs the honor of being pioneer in this relief and reconstruc- tion work which provides a chance for college women {3 combine their trained ith their natural instincts { of suffering. Wellesley college is planning to send a similar o this springt After consultation with the French government, the re- glon round Grecourt, /in the Somme department, was chosen for the work of the Smith unit. Sixteen villages, wita a present total population of 1200, were chosen, not only on ac- esunt of their tragic desolation, but because they are the center of a very fertile wheat-raising district. Reviving Farming. One of the greatest tasks that the Smith girls found was to supervise and encourage.renewed agriculture in the war-torn fields. Before the Ge: mans left Grecourt and the surround- ing villages, they had methodicaily destroyed or. cm{wled all farming tm- plements. But Yankee foresight had anticipated this, for the Smith girls brought over new harvesting machin- ery with them. They brought also great quantities of seeds, including many generously donated by Luther Burbank, the famous horticulturist. The headquarters of the Smith unit is the ruined estate of the old Chateau Robecourt, at Grecourt. The chatean itself was dynamited by the Germaas when they had -to, retreat; omly the walls and cellar are left. The latter is used as a Storehouse.. The owner of the estate, the Baronne de Robecourt, now . over, 60, is at a health resort in pthe vosges. The spiendid poplars along the ave- nue leading up to the chateau have been carefully felled. The moat, slimy, green and stagnant, bears a placard, “Bonne a hoire!” (“Good to drink”); and on the wall by the big iron en- trance gates are scrawled the words “Eine gute gebrannte, Gan—" well-burst——"). Evidently the Hun who planted the fuses did not quito have time to finish his inscription. The stables, gardener’s house and out- buildings are either roofless or i great need of repair, but the village church is intact, and in the stabio yard the inhabitents of the hamlet (obout 20 in number) are now encamp- ed. Wonderful . Restoration. The enemy left very little undam- aged property when they departed from Grecourt, but their efficiency i destruction has been matched by & humaner efficiency in ‘constructive ef- fort, and the German offic: quartered in the chatéau m prised if tnay could seo what a hand- | Sfotats cen a cellar. .

The unit has three trucks of its own, which it uses to'transport milk, bread, tools and supplies of every kind. The work is divided into. eight- de- partments: Housing, farming, nursing, social, service, medical, records, trans- portation, store and supplies. But this classification by no_means exhausts the - activities of the unit. Its mem- bers were chosen for the variety of helpful service they could render, and | the yinclude agriculturists, kinder- gartners, a. wireless operator, trained | social workers, linguists, a carpenter and a combler! St. Matthew’s Day Mass. One of the finest and most inspiring things the unit has done was the mass which was held in Grecourt church on Sept. 21st, the feast day of St. Mat- w. the patron saint of this district. was the first church service which had been held in Grecourt since the Germans came in Angust, 1914, & priest was found to celebrate the mas the little church was swept and ,gar- nished with field flowers by the village women and children, and St. Mattnew's | day, 1917, was made a fete day indeed. Two small altar boys gave serious as- sistance in the gervice, .and the bril: jant red robe of the priest contrasted in an aimost startling way with the sombré gray uniforms of the unit.
